Bangkok Heat — wok-fired Thai cooking
Manchester · Since 2020

Pad Thai.
Tom Yum.
The way Bangkok eats it.

A small kitchen on the Curry Mile, run by a family from Bangkok. Wok-fired by Thai-trained chefs at proper street-stall heat — the kind that puts the wok hei in pad see ew.

Today's Cook

Massaman Beef —
six hours, slow.

Brisket pulled apart with a spoon, fresh-pounded curry paste, roasted peanuts, cinnamon, star anise, baby potatoes. The kind of dish a Thai grandmother makes on a Sunday — except we're open Tuesdays too.

The Wok Hei

Proper heat.
Proper flavour.

Most British curry houses use a flat-top. We use a proper carbon-steel wok at 1200° — the kind that gives noodles that smoky, charred edge you get on Khao San Road. You can taste the difference in the first bite.

Our Story

From a stall on
Yaowarat Road.

Chef Anong learned to cook from her mother, who ran a noodle stall in Bangkok's Chinatown for forty years. Same wok every night. Same pounded paste. Same regulars from 6pm till the rice ran out.

She moved to Manchester with her husband Pim in 2018, missed the food too much, and opened Bangkok Heat in 2020 — just as the world was shutting. They cooked through the lockdown on takeaway alone, and the Curry Mile queue started forming the day they reopened.

Same recipes, same wok, same heat. Just a different postcode.

Kind Words
“I lived in Bangkok for three years and Bangkok Heat is the closest thing I've found in the UK. The pad krapow brought me back. Properly spicy, properly aromatic, and the price hasn't doubled like everywhere else.”
